But wouldn't the 3D stud effect only be visible if lit by light?
How about a actual 3D stud model only in screenshots (like shadows on bricks in screenshots before v21) and have normal maps in real-time rendering?

The sun is a light, brick-spawned or projectile spawned light are lights...
So the stud effect would always be visible.

This is worse than any idea suggested before this, not to mention impossible unless Badspot was interested himself.

your choice:
remove shadows & shaders to get 3d studs
no 3d studs

Except it's barely noticeable when there are no brick or player lights around.

why would you need to get rid of shadows/shaders?
